That’s how the OG bad cats looked. I’m lucky enough to have a friend who worked there in the early days and he has a few of the OG prototype amps and this gain stage and the way it’s laid out is how they are done in those amps. I have a picture I’ll see if I can dig it up.
Basically it flips the track upside down instead of reversing it. Best way I can explain it. Which puts it in the opposite spectrum it’s not phase inversion but the tracks for the deeper backups are inverted on the center axis through the track. I’m not a pro I just know it sounds cool lol
Thanks! They should be coming through both speakers. I just have one set phase inverted to push it further out in stereo. Makes it really wide sounding.
The bottom end of all the filter caps are bulged and leaking. It’s not photographed. I’m not going to attempt to power this on without putting new filter caps in.
My friend picked this up for $300. Not working but my god what a steal. Now he’s going to pay me to get her running. Obviously this thing has been hacked. Mustard caps taken out. Etc.,
My plan was to do all the caps first because they are clearly dead. I don’t even want to attempt to slowly...
I change strings when the G string no longer can unison bend. Usually 2 weeks of playing 4-8 hours a day and the string just won’t find pitch that’s when I know when to change them lol
I’ve been playing in bands on stage since I was 14 years old. This was the only time I’ve ever had anything like this happen. 90% of the musicians I played with over the years were serious and dedicated. This was just a fluke.
I havnt broken a string on stage since I was like 18 years old. Actually I havnt broken a string at all in years. Was actually talking to someone about this recently. I use .08’s and a 4mm pick. And other guitarists are blown away that I don’t break strings but I barley hit them, don’t dig in...
Tonight was the first jam with just the 4 of us. I love the sound of a band with only a single guitar. The music just breathes better live. We sounded excellent and honestly way better than before. We already booked our first gig under our new name.
I’ve only been in the band for about 5-6 months. Yeah, dude drinks all the time. But never like this before. It was ridiculous. Just glad it made ever one else ready to ditch him. I seen the writing on the wall and was already making my way out before this happened. This was going to be my last...
I haven’t had cable television since I was 14 years old. Now 33. I’m a streaming house and I basically only watch YouTube. My wife has her prime and whatever else she watches. But yeah, I only watch YouTube mainly podcasts and documentary style channels about occult, religion and philosophy.
We’re a 5 piece band. We play 30-45 classic, 80’s, 90’s and Modern rock songs. Usually, 3 hour long sets. Well, we had a gig at a really cramped club on Saturday night.
I knew the night was going to be bad right when I tried to move some of the backlined/club owned gear over to the other side...
